P.S. Sorry if this message looks like spam, it's hard to make a posting like this without it looking like it. Would it help if I mentioned that this is the Safe Speed Forum, discussing the campaign for genuine road safety? There, I can't be a spambot, can I? Unless I'm a really, really clever one.


:welcome:

It doesn't look like spam at all, so please don't worry.

There are certainly people here who are seriously and intelligently concerned about losses of civil liberties, and I hope you'll find some supporters. Me? I've got my hands full of bad road safety policy, otherwise I'd be heading your way.

Come to www.freedom2choose.co.uk and learn all about the harsh, uncompromising law, the junk science used to justify it, the rise of intolerance against smokers, and the resulting resistance which is growing day by day. We're not just a bunch of keyboard warriors -- we have thousands of members, contacts within Westminster, plenty of media coverage, and our "piece de resistance": a Judicial Review of the legislation about to commence!

I am with you all the way - I am a non-smoker who sees the smoking ban, for a multitude of reasons, as grossly abhorrent.

See: http://pubcurmudgeon.blogspot.com/

Obviously SafeSpeed is fundamentally about road safety, but I see no problem with it also becoming a meeting place for libertarians.

Reverse challange!

You eat 100mg of nicotine!
I eat a 100mg pellet of PuO!

Guess who will still be alive in the morning (and for a good many years hence, God willing) :lol:


OK, fair enough - weight of tobacco does not equal weight of nicotine. I just couldn't resist having a bit of fun!

I also discovererd a claim that whilst 14% (or so) of schitzophrenics seem to have a history of hash smoking, in excess of 75% have a history of tobacco smoking! IE the link between tobacco use and mental illness is far stronger than the claimed link with cannabis use.


Well, we both disagree with you there, don't we, Yokel? Wibble wibble wibble - we're completely hatstand! :loco: Where's our pipe?
